We first heard about Lora as one of a group of stray dogs that had been dumped in a neighborhood. We were able to trap Lora and her brother, Rowan, but were unable to locate the other three dogs. While scared before being trapped, once out of the traps she and her brother proved to be happy, friendly, and lively young dogs!
Both Lora and her brother had been hit by a car at some point when puppies. They had never been treated for their injuries. Luckily for Lora, her vet was able to perform surgery on her hip to repair the old damage and she recovered well! Lora runs with the other dogs in her foster home and walks nicely on a leash. She still limps on occasion, but this should get better as she continues walking and playing. Slow walks uphill help a lot with this recovery! She does not need further surgical intervention.
Lora is looking for an adult home that is relatively active and will take her out on walks and adventures! She loves her people and foster siblings! She's a great companion!
